Level 23 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Seeing a raise to 60,000 from middle position ahead of him, Daniyal Gheba three-bet to 210,000 on the button. Next to act, Anatoly Nikitin four-bet to 520,000 from the small blind. The original raiser folded, but Gheba called.

The dealer spread a 5♥Q♥6♠ flop, and when Nikitin continued for 300,000, Gheba called again.

Nikitin slowed down on the 8♦ turn, checking to Gheba. Gheba took the opportunity to take over the betting lead, sliding 475,000 into the middle.

After a little deliberation, Nikitin surrendered and returned his cards to the dealer.
